Listen, did you hear that sound?
Somebody’s walking close behind me
I hear their footsteps on the ground
Looking, then I turned around
He stopped advancing in his footsteps
He lifted up his head and frowned
One last time (ah, a-a-ah), I want to feel you near me (a-a-a-ah)
Together as one (a-a-a-ah)
One last time (ah, a-a-ah), a hand to heal your pain (a-a-a-ah)
Take it and run (a-a-a-ah)
So I take his cue, I start to walk away
But he keeps calling up behind me
Like a voice of yesterday
A-aaah loosen the noose up, loosen the noose up
A-aaah loosen the noose, loosen the noose
I remember you (I remember, I remember)
I remember you (I remember)
My God, your face is so familiar (so familiar, so familiar)
I thought you’d never go away (I remember)
One last time (ah, a-a-ah), no point pretending anymore (a-a-a-ah)
I found true love (a-a-a-ah), six feet below
Just one time (ah, a-a-ah), I want to hold your soul (a-a-a-ah) with my bare hands (a-a-a-ah)
And squeeze
So I cupped my hands (a-a-ah, a-a-ah), and I took his face (a-a-ah, a-a-ah)
I said you gotta lighten up, boy (a-a-ah, a-a-ah)
Something in life you must erase (a-a-ah)
A-aaah loosen the noose up, loosen the noose up
A-aaah loosen the noose, loosen the noose
